Notes to Editors

- *Terms and Conditions Apply

- There are two main prizes of a Nintendo Wii and copy of Sonic and the Secret Rings.

- The store is open daily from 10am - 8pm Mon - Sat and 10am - 6pm on Sundays.

- Sonic and the Secret Rings (£39.99) allows users to take full advantage of the Wii controller and perform a variety of physical movements that actively advance Sonic, combat enemies, and perform special moves. The story begins with Sonic turning the pages of the classic book, "Arabian Nights." Suddenly, he is visited by the tale's central character, the Genie, who reveals that the last several pages of the book have mysteriously gone blank. This mystical being grants Sonic the ability to travel into the book's world. Armed with his signature speed, Sonic sets off on an adventure to retrieve the missing pages, and set the world of the Arabian Nights back in order.

- Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz (£39.99 or £19.99 when bought with Sonic and the Secret Rings) is an all-action extravaganza of unique new puzzles and madcap multiplayer gameplay. Players can get stuck into scores of new puzzle levels and a barrel-load of thrilling new party games, all specifically designed to take spectacular advantage of the pioneering Nintendo Wii controller.
